LuckyHour Casino - Player has delayed withdrawals from casino.

Resolved
Our verdict

Case closed

Amount: €103,025

LuckyHour Casino
Safety Index:Above average

Case summary

The player from Sweden had a fully verified account at LuckyHour Casino but faced difficulties withdrawing their winnings. Despite multiple withdrawal requests totaling €3,000 and a current balance of around €17,000, the casino failed to process these requests within the timeframes outlined in their Terms and Conditions. They sought assistance in resolving their pending withdrawals and establishing a fair withdrawal schedule. We intervened by requesting the casino to adhere to their own withdrawal limits of €10,000 per week and to provide a clear payout schedule. The casino eventually processed all pending withdrawals, and the player confirmed receipt of their full balance. The complaint was marked as resolved.

I have a fully verified account at LuckyHour Casino (Luckyhour.com), operated by Altacore N.V. My KYC is complete and I have no active bonuses or wagering requirements on my balance.


In November 2025 I built my balance up significantly and started requesting withdrawals, but the casino is making it very difficult to cash out, despite what is written in their own Terms and Conditions.

Timeline (all amounts in EUR):


7 Nov – First €1,000 withdrawal finally paid after a long pending period.

14 Nov – Two further withdrawals of €1,000 each requested.

19 Nov – Another €1,000 withdrawal requested.

Since then – They only occasionally release a single €1,000 withdrawal while leaving older withdrawals pending and not giving clear reasons.


Right now I have:

3 pending withdrawals of €1,000 each (total €3,000), and

A playable balance of around €17,000.


Their T&Cs state that:

Withdrawals should be processed within three banking days (6.6).

Maximum withdrawals are €5,000 per day, €10,000 per week and €30,000 per month (6.11).


Only winnings above €20,000 can be paid in monthly instalments (6.14).

My total winnings are at €20,000, yet they are effectively limiting me to €1,000 chunks, leaving them pending well beyond three banking days, and keeping the account open for further play instead of paying out.


I submitted a formal complaint to LuckyHour in line with their complaints process (section 13) and gave them 48 hours to respond. I have received no real reply, only automated emails when a single €1,000 withdrawal is eventually processed.


I am asking Casino Guru to help get:

  • All current pending withdrawals paid, and
  • A clear, fair schedule to withdraw the remaining balance according to their own stated limits and timeframes.


I can provide screenshots of my balance, pending withdrawals, verification status and all email communication.

Update – large confirmed win (~€103k) and provider verification


Since opening this complaint, two important things have happened:


On 29 November 2025 I hit a large win on the slot Uncrossable Road Xmas. Including this, my LuckyHour balance increased to €103,025.78. My account is fully KYC-verified and there are no active bonuses or wagering requirements on these funds.

LuckyHour then emailed me to say my gaming session had been sent to the game provider (Evoplay) for an additional check and my account was temporarily blocked. After about a week, they sent a further email confirming that Evoplay had completed the check, found no irregularities, and confirmed the legitimacy of the reviewed game rounds. LuckyHour also confirmed that:




My account has been unblocked

No adjustments were made to my balance during the review

My full balance is available



I have now stopped all wagering on the account and will not place any further bets. I am only using the account for withdrawal requests.


The issue now is purely about the payout timing and structure, not the validity of the win:


Historically, LuckyHour has only been releasing €1,000 at a time with long delays and no written schedule, even when my balance was much lower.

Their own Terms and Conditions state:

Max withdrawals of €5,000 per day, €10,000 per week and €30,000 per month (clause 6.11)

For wins over €20,000, payouts may be divided into monthly instalments of up to €20,000 (clause 6.14)




Given my confirmed balance of around €102,000, a reasonable and contract-consistent payout plan would be up to €20,000 per month over five months (or faster), starting immediately.


I have emailed LuckyHour’s VIP/finance team asking for:


A clear written payout schedule in line with clauses 6.11 and 6.14

Confirmation of the concrete withdrawal limits applied to my account

Confirmation that no further checks or holds are pending



I am waiting for their response.


I would be grateful if Casino Guru could:


Take into account that the game provider has confirmed the win as legitimate and the balance as correct, and

Help ensure LuckyHour pays the full balance out according to a clear, reasonable schedule in line with their own Terms and Conditions, rather than continuing with very small, irregular payments and no plan.



I can provide:


The provider-check email where LuckyHour confirms Evoplay found no irregularities

Chat transcripts confirming the balance and win

Screenshots of my current balance, pending withdrawals and the winning game rounds

Copies of my emails to LuckyHour support and VIP/finance.

Hi, I can confirm this is not true. I still have a balance of 58k euros remaining. 3 x 1k withdrawals are in pending state. They are still limiting my ability to withdraw the full amount by only having the ability withdraw 3k at a time.


they did release 3x 1k on Friday and 3 x1k on Monday but I still have a large balance remaining and no payout schedule has been provided.

Dear RhysA,


I understand that the casino will not pay the full amount at once. I was suggesting that you wait for at least a portion of the funds to arrive in your bank account. Please keep us informed of any new developments.

Hi, I’m still waiting for pending withdrawals and for my full balance to be paid out. Still, as mentioned on my last email - they are drip feeding 3k withdrawals a week - which would take me an extensive period of time to withdraw the full amount, but I was told by you to wait for a portion of funds to arrive. This doesn’t resolve the issue at hand.

Hi,


issue is still not resolved. I still have a large amount of balance to withdraw, and they are still drip feeding 3 x 1k withdrawals a week. It will take us months to withdraw the full balance if this continues.


I have sent you screenshots of recent pending withdrawals that were requested 3 days ago, and still they have not been released.


the intent from LuckyHour here is drip feed as much as possible with the hope that players play funds away while waiting.


what they are doing completely contradicts their terms of service.


issue still is not resolved, and should remain open until my full balance is received.

Dear RhysA,


what is the current pending balance? Has there been any development since the last update?

Public

they keep to the same method - they allow 3 x1,000.00 euro to be in pending state at any given time. It takes them 7 days to process the 3 x 1000 pending withdrawals. The balance is at 17k, so it’s going to take me another 5 weeks to get the full balance out. This complaint was lodged a month ago.


they have not increased the speed of the processing the withdrawals - they stick to every 7 days, not have they increased the withdrawals limit to 10k max as per their terms and conditions.

Dear LuckyHour Casino Representative,


According to your Terms and Conditions, the withdrawal limits are defined as follows:


6.11. The maximum withdrawal amount processed to a player is €5,000 (or the equivalent amount in the account currency) per day, €10,000 (or the equivalent amount in the account currency) per week, and €30,000 (or the equivalent amount in the account currency) per month, unless otherwise specified in the Terms & Conditions of a specific promotion. Exceptions may be granted to players with a higher VIP level, at the sole discretion of the casino.


As stated by the player above, these limits do not appear to be applied in accordance with your published Terms and Conditions. We kindly ask you to proceed with processing the withdrawals in line with your own stated withdrawal limits.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Hello Casino Guru team,


We would like to provide an update regarding the player's withdrawal.


Due to the specific processing limits of the payment method, the player is receiving 10,000 weekly, split into three installments. A payment of 3,000 was successfully processed on January 5th.


The player's remaining balance is 14,000, which will be paid out in full following this schedule. Thank you for your continued assistance.

Public

Can we please ask for dates of the scheduled payments until the full balance have been cleared if so.


to date, they have only been releasing 3k per week.


if we can align on the schedule of payments - dates and amounts - and we can stick to the payment plan and meet the agreed payment schedule, this would be satisfactory.

Hi Jana,


I sent you a screenshot via email of the 3 x 1k pending withdrawals that have remained pending for 5 days, assuming they will be released on Monday. This means they are still restricting withdrawals to 3k euro every 7 days.


As per Luckyhours last response in the thread


 "Due to the specific processing limits of the payment method, the player is receiving 10,000 weekly, split into three installments. A payment of 3,000 was successfully processed on January 5th.

The player's remaining balance is 14,000, which will be paid out in full following this schedule. Thank you for your continued assistance." 


They have no upheld their statement. It is correct that they released 3 x 1k euro withdrawals on the 5th, to which I immediately requested 3 x 1k new withdrawals on the same day, but they have not released those funds to date.

To ensure clarity on the balance - there is 14k left remaining in available balance, with 3k in pending state since the 5th Jan. So we are still trying to release 17k. 


This has been going on for nearly 2 months now. No change in withdrawal behavior, a continuous breach of their own terms, not upholding commitments made in the complaint thread, and false statements made by LuckyHour on the complaint matter.

Dear LuckyHour Casino Representative,


as you mentioned earlier, the funds were released from your side on January 5th. However, as of today, the player has still not received this payment.

Could you please clarify the reason for the delay and inform us when the next payment from your side is scheduled?

Thank you for your cooperation.
